By Proj: ROY MACRIDIS
Brandeis University
In the last decade Mediterranean democracies have
come a \ong way but Greece is again in a state of cήsis. The
country has been in a state of turmoil due to an unprecedented series of financial scandals implicating the top leadership of the ruling party - (Pasok) - including its Prime
Minister for about eight years, Andreas Papandreou; terrorism is on the rise and only a few weeks ago the son-in-law of
Constantine Mitsotakis the leader of the rival party (New
Democracy), was gunned down in Athens. The new election
just he\d, on Νον. 5, was as inconclusive as the one that
preceded it on June 18. Even if a government is formed with
the Communists switching their support to Papandreou or
by Mitsotakis with Communist acquiescence or, a pledge to
abstain in votes of confidence, or if it is a caretaker or a
coalition cabinet, it will be short-lived. There is no majority
that can elect a President of the Republic in March of 1990
and a new legislative election will have to take place.
For the last year symbolic issues and fiery rhetoric have
dominated the political discourse. They have obscured the
substantive issues: the state of the Greek economy and
society: a five-fold increase in the public debt in the last few
years; rising unemployment and rapidly ήsing inflation, a
growing deficit in the balance of trade and extensive borrowing from abroad. Private and foreign investments have
come to a standstill. The health services, the educational
system, public transports and in general public services are
in disarray. Without a viable government with the recrudescence of terrorism and political passions on the loose the
situation is the very stuff that coups are made of; it is
reminiscent of the early months of 1967 - before the military junta took over.
Help is needed and help can be provided in many ways
by the European Common Market and the USA. The US
military bases in Greece have been one of the major symbolic issues that arouses passions and divides the public.
Why not remove them before a referendum dooms them
while exacerbating political passions? Instead of insisting on
Mohammed Rashid's extradition to the US (another
powerful symbolic issue) why not let him in jail in Greece on
condition that he stays there? Cyprus is another emotional
issue and no matter how obdurate the Turks may be they

should be pressed openly to consider new political arrangements for the "two states" in the island regime now in force.
The European Commission may take the initiative while
Turkey is under consideration for admission. The European
Commission could help a great deal by releasing the credits
for regional development earmarked fo r Greece and even
increasing them while reaffirming in no uncertain terms its
oversight of the management of the funds and its commitment to democratic governance for all its members. Both the
European Community and the United States are giving a
helping hand to the countries in Eastern Europe that are
moving in the direction of liberalization and democracy.
Would ίt not be appropriate to help a democratίc ally in a
crιsis? Α pledge to Greece from both the Common Market
and the USA may well be in order.
With the major symbolic and emotional issues out of the
way and renewed hope for the economy Theodorakis' political conversion to the conservative party and his music favoring unity rather than revolution may do the rest to bring
some calm and chase away the demons and the demagogues
that continue to torment this ancient land .

The Ν ovember 5 Election:
The Stalemate Remains - What
Ν ext?
By Prof D.G. KOUSOULAS
The November 5 election did not resolve the political
stalemate. Although the New Democracy party increased its
vote total by 209,000 (compared to the June 18 election) it
failed to win an absolute majority of seats in the Legislature
- which under the parliamentary system is a condition
necessary for being able to form a viable govemment.
At the same time, PASOK, in spite of the scandals,
increased its own total by approximately 170,000. The great
loser of this election was the Coalition of the Left which lost
approximately 121,000 votes compared to its June 18
showing.
Α study of the electoral results indicates that another
election with the same electoral system (or one even more
proportional) will not change the situation. In June 18, 1989
the combined vote for PASOK and theCoalition ofthe Left
was 3,416,000 (note: for convenience, figures are rounded)
while that for N.D., the Stefanopoulos DI.ANA and the
ultra-right ΕΡΕ was 2,970,000. In other words, the 'Ίeft"
accounted for 53.49 percent and the " right" for 46.50 percent
of the 6,386,000 total for all these parties.
In the November 5 election the " left" - PASOK, Coali-
tion of the Left, independent Lazaris, and the Ecologists attracted a total of 3,507,000 while the "right" - N.D . being
the only party in this category - attracted 3,098,000, or
53.19% for the "left" and 46.86% for the "right". This, in
spite of the fact that approximately 213,000 more voters
voted for the two camps, "ήght" and "left", in the November
5 election compared to the June 18 election. (See table 1).
There is no reason to expect that this 53 to 46 ratio will
change drastically in the foreseeable future.
The Added Votes
The New Democracy party received 209,000 more votes
and PASOK 170,000 more than had received in June.
Where did these votes come from? The answer to this question will help us understand what happened and what we
may expect in the future.
Our study shows three major sources: (a) The new voters
(those voting for the first time) and returning voters (those
who had stayed away from the polls in June); (b) the former
voters of DI.ANA and ΕΡΕ (these two parties did not field
candidates in the Ν ovember election); and (c) the voters who

Ieft the Coalition of the Left in November.
As shown in Table I, between June 18 and November 5,
the combined number of votes for the two basic "camps"
("right" and "left" as defined above) increased by approximately 213,000. These 213,000 additional votes came in part
from new voters who registered since June 18, and from
PASOK followers who in June had stayed away from the
polls (New and Retuming, N/ R). Approximately another
65,000 came from DI.ANA, and 20,000 from Ε.Ρ.Ε. The
independent Lazaris was e1ected with votes from PASOK
and Coalition followers because these two parties by tacit
agreement did not run in Levkada candidates of their own .

The Distribution
Table 2 shows how the added votes were distributed
among the parties. Of the 213,000 "new and returning"
voters, the New Democracy party received approximate1y
125,000 (practically all from the "new voters" category),
PASOK 66,000 (practically all from the "PASOK returning
voters" category), Lazaris 5000 from normally PASOK
voters in Levkada, a nd Eco1ogists 17,000 (practically all
from the "new voters" category). Of the 65,000 former
DI.ANA voters 64,000 voted for the New Democracy and
1,000 for the Ecologists. Of the 20,000 Ε.Ρ.Ε. voters virtually all shifted to New Democracy. The voters in category
(c), the 121,000 who had voted for the Coalition ofthe Left
in June but did not do so in November, 104,000 voted for
PASOK, 12,000 for the Eco1ogists, and 5,000 for Lazaris in
Levkada. The Ecologists retained the 9,000 votes they had
received in J une.

Table 2 shows that very few if any PASOK voters shifted
to the New Democracy party.lfthe electoral system remains
as it is now or becomes even more proportional, the New
Democracy will be unable to win a governing majority and
the country will face either a continuing stalemate or a weak
and ineffective coalition government by Ρ ASO Κ and the
Coalition of the Left.
How did this happen?
First of all, the decision of the New Democracy leadership to go to the polls in Ν ovember was unwise. One of the
N.D. major weapons was the issue of the scandals. When
after the June election N.D. and the Coalition of the Left
formed a joint government primarily to pursue the investigation of the scandals and the punishment of those guilty, Ι
applauded the move. However, the two partners, after an
impressive showing in the Legislature which in the end voted
to establish the Special Court provided by the Constitution
to try Α. Papandreou and his co-defendants, paradoxically,
they stopped the process mid-stream and went to the
November election. This enabled Papandreou to escape,
regain the initiative and attack his accusers as "slanderers"
and 'Ίiers". Ι had cautioned against this early election but to
no avail. The strategic error of the premature and unnecessary election was compounded by the tactical eπor of
sweeping under the rug the issue of the scandals during the
pre-election period, thereby wasting all that had been
accomplished during the dramatic debates in the Legislature
in the summer. ln addition, the N.D. leadership proved
unable to profit by the historic collapse of the Marxist
ideology in Eastern Europe.

What Now?
Greece has now reached an impasse which will not be
overcome with half-measures and stop-gap governmental
schemes. Basically, we have a stalemate between the
Marxist-oriented, leftist (self-proclaimed "progressive")
forces and the forces which believe in a free economy and in
a reduced involvement ofthe government in economic activities. The fact that a majority ofthe Greek voters continue to
vote for the so called "progressive" forces at the very time the
peoples of Eastern Europe (who had first hand experience
with Marxism) reject the "socialist" model with such vehemence, is a sad commentary for those who bear the responsibility of enlightening Greek public opinion.
When the opposing forces are almost of equal strength
the only way out of the impasse is a grand compromise ίn

which both sides derive benefits from a settlement. For the
New Democracy the most critical issue is the electoral system. lf it remains as it is or worse if it becomes even more
"proportional" the New Democracy will not be able to come
to office for as long as the "left" continues to attract more
than 53% of the vote. This may not change very soon. But
Papandreou will not give the New Democracy an electoral
system that will help it come to office - without a quid pro
quo.
Since the New Democracy unwisely let the issue of the
scandals slip out of its fingers, the scandals no longer play a
political role. Therefore, to bring the country out of the
quicksand, the leaders ofN.D. and of PASOK may consider
the following compro"Ίise. I) The N.D. and PASOK deputies will enact an electoral system similar to the one which
was in effect when Papandreou won in Ι 981 a strong majority with only 44% of the vote. 2) The present Legislature will
not elect a new President in March so that a new election will
be necessary. This new election will be held under the 1981
electoral system. 3) The Legislature which will come out of
this election - and one can safely predict that the New
Democracy will have a clear majority of seats in it - will
vote for the election of a new President. We may reasonably
expect that N.D. and PASOK will have together more than
270 votes in the 300-seat Legislature. This means thatthe two
parties together will be able to elect a new President even
with the first ballot. 4) N.D. and PASOK deputies will elect
Α. Papandreou to the Presidency of the Republic. (τhe
prosecution of the scandals, of course, at least as far as
Papandreou is concerned, is a dead issue already).
If such a grand compromise were to be implemented,
Greece would move forward in the next four years, so
critical for the country's future, with a New Democracy
govemment, and with a representative of the Left, Α.
Papandreou, in the Presidency- which Mr. Papandreou
himself emasculated of much of its power. With the problems the country now faces, a degree of cooperation will be
necessary with the forces of the "left" if a New Democracy
government is to maintain "social peace" while taking the
necessary tough measures to restore the economy. The prroposed compromise wil1 have an added dividend. It will
smooth the difficult road a New Democracy government is

Admittedly the proposed compromise appears farfetched, even "impossible". But so would have seemed afew
months ago the opening of the Berlin Wall or a nonCommunist goνernment in Poland. Dead-end situations

relations. Nobody seems to have any
agreement. They can not agree on the
amount of money or the type of public
relations but Ι would point out to you
the presentation we have just made is an
example of the greatest public relations
campaign that this profession of medicine can engage in. Dr. Kalemkeris- \et

Believe it or not. Harvard actually lives up to this
reputation.
Its academic mission is everybit as lofty as
Adelphis: to develop the whole man and the whole
woman; to expose students to liberallearning. the
2500-year tradition ofWestern Civilization; to prepare
you for life, not just to occupy your mind for the
years between high school and post-pubescence.
Its location in Cambridge, just across the river
from Boston. may not promise the Museum of
Modern Art, Lincoln Center, Broadway, or the United
Nations. But it holds its own against Adelphis campus, which is less than aπ hour from New York City.
And don't overlook Harvards extracurriculars:
its century-old clubs and organizations are the stuff
of legend, along the lines of the Adelphi athletic
department. Νο less than three Adelphi Panther

West, the laηd of the prophets aηd of
Jesus Christ.
The vast sweep of the Old Testament
and the New, rangiηg acrσss deserts aηd
mouηtaiηs, seems to cover a territory
whose horizons are limitless. The still
waters, the hσwliηg wilderηess, farfluηg battlefields aηd cities whose
ηames toll like church bells - all exist
in the laηdscape that every reader ofthe
Bible can visualize, stretchiηg endlessly
iηto the distaηce. It cσmes as somethiηg
of a surprise, then, tσ visit the birthplace
σf Christiaηity aηd fiηd that this part of
the world is ίη reality very small. It was
the ideas borη there that reached to the
eηds of the earth.
Visitors to the Holy Laηd feel a stirring of emotion the miηute they set foot
on its histσric grσund. Their eyes lift to
the timeless hills, abσut which the psa\mists saηg aηd where the prophets meditated. Atop one of these stony hills
sprawls the tσwη of Bethlehem where
Christ was borη. Aηother mouηtaintop
is crowned with the Holy City σf JerusaJem, its aηcient glory now shared by the
Star, the Cross, and the Crescent symbσls of three moηotheistic faiths
with roots iη the Holy Laηd. The names
of rivers, hills, aηd tσwηs bring the Bible
to life, and the ceηturies fall away as the
visitor is carried back to the times of
Geηesis.
Before Christ's Birth
About two thousaηd years before the
birth of Christ, a tribe of ηomadic shepherds, much like the Bedouiη today,
21
to the status of an insignificant Roman
province when Christ. was born there
about 4-1 B.C. The times were restless,
and the hopes of the people were pinned
to the coming of a Messiah who,
according to their prophets, would restore the kingdom to its ancient glory.
The Crist Chi1d who was born in Bethlehem seemed to many to fulfi\1 that
prophecy.
According to the Gospels, the Christ
Child "grew in wisdom and stature and
ίη favor with God and man" and spent
his youth in the quiet town ofNazareth.
The Gospels all tell of Christ's journeying throughout the small country,
teaching, working miracles, and bringing to the peop1e of his era an awareness
of the deep spiritua1 relationship
between them and their God.
In the years of his ministry, Christ's
travels never took him more than 130
miles from Jerusalem, and every place
of record where he set his foot has been
enshrined, first ίη the memories of his
followers, and \ater by the various sects
of the Chrίstian religion. In Jerusalem,
particularly, where the events of the
Passion and the Resurrection were
recorded in great detail, one finds a
wea1th of p\aces intimately associated
wίth Christ's sojourn on earth. This
whole area is the very fountainhead of
C hristianity, and is ca\led the Holy
Land.

their obedience to Him. But in 1250

conquered the land of Canaan, and
divided it amongst the twelve tribes.

to the Holy Land for more than seventeen hundred years, but strangely
enough the earliest ones found less to
see there than travelers can see today.
The country of Judaea, where Christ
had lived and taught and died, rose up
against the Romans ίη 66 A.D. As punishment the Jews were sent into exile,
theίr city of Jerusalem was burned to
the ground.
The fίrst C hristian pilgrim to leave a
record of his travels came to Jerusalem
in 212 A.D. He wrote in an early manuscript, "for the sake of prayer and to
DECEM BER, 1989
obtain knowledge of the Holy Places by
enquiry." He found a Roman city
rebuilt on the ruins of old Jerusalem.
The sacred places mentioned in the Gospels were concealed beneath pagan
shrines, but there was a small Christian
community living ίη the city, and its
people remembered that under the temple of Venus, built by the Romans, lay
the Holy Sepulcher and the Rock of
Calvary.
About a hundred years later, Helen,
the mother of Emperor Constantine,
made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
Her son had recently built the orίgίnal
whίle
rich
St. Peter's ίη Rome, and he ordered the
temple of Venus t o be demolished and
the C hurch of the Holy Sepulcher to be
erected in its place. Meanwhile, in
Bethlehem the Grotto of the Nativity
was dίscovered under a Roman temple
of Adonis, and there, too, a magnificent
Christian church rose at the command
of Η elen and her son Emperor Constantine the Great, who were later canonized
to be renowned as Sts. Constantine and
Helen.
Thus the two great Christian shrines
in the Holy Land were established in the
fourth century, and from then on, as
23
Christianity grew and spread, pilgrims
thronged to Palestine from distant
corners of the world.
''Oh Little Town of Bethlehem"
Of a\1 the biblical places Bethlehem is
the one that most stirs the imagination.
People in northern lands have pictured
steep-roofed houses clustered on a hill,
snugly blanketed with snow and gleaming in the frosty light of the December
stars. And the colors ofChristmas in the
north are the bright green and red of
holly, the white sparkle of snowflakes,
when iή actωιlity Bethlehem is quite different from the little town portrayed on
Christmas cards.
Then there is the ancient dream: a
cold clear nig ht made brilliant by a glorious star, the fragrance of incense, shepherds and wise men falling to their
knees in adoration of the sweet baby
boy, the incarnatio n of perfect love.
This simple tableau is so rich with
meaning that whether represented on
the mantelpiece or in the mind, it seems
suspended, complete unto itself, somewhere in eternity.
Today, Bethlehem still stands as the
symbol of a dream. It has a strange
amorphous quality, par ticularly during
the Christmas holidays; a place where
fact gives way to fa ble and the present is
swallowed by longing for the past. And
the imposing Church of the Nativity,
t he grandi ose symbol of fait h on the
part of Sts. Helen and Constantine, is a
more commemorative gesture, while
inside the church, the grotto where the
Christ Child lay, in an animal-feeding
trough made of stone (now faced with
white marble), is overpowered with candles and brocade and elaborate incense
burners.
In a sense, it is a cornucopia of symbols that Bethlehem can be enjoyed, and
if the symbols are a crazy quilt of tinsel
and gold, the raucus and the pristine,
the ancient custom and the modern,
then that is what makes Christmas Eve
at the place of Christ's birth almost
2,000 years later so fascinating.
But in actuality the little town of
Beth\ehem is built on the terraced slopes
of two hills, a nd its narrow streets are
sandy and treeless, almost devoid of
color. Rising like slim sentinels above
the city are the bell towers of numerous
monasteries and convents, and the ringing of their bells is the special music of
Bethlehem. Under the ageless skies,
chime answers chime as though the

Christmas tidings were ringing out each
day, year after year.
Bethlehem is aJso a market town,
with fields of wheat spread out below it.
Its name means "house of bread," and
its bake shops still make the round flat
loaves used in biblical times. But ever
since the first Christmas star guided shepherds and wise men to the manger
where the Christ Child lay, pilgrims
have been making their way to Bethlehem.

"While Shepherds Watched
Theίr Flocks"
In the hills outside of Bethlehem shepherds still watch over their flocks in
much the same way as they did when
Christ was born. 'Άnd there were in the
same country shepherds abiding in the
field, keeping watch over their flock by
night" is as true today as it was when the
New Testament recorded this pastoral
scene. And as the shadows Jengthen, the

plaintive music of the shepherd's reed
sounds over the quiet fields. The flocks
will gather, and men will prepare to
keep their vigil under the darkening sky.
Later, when the stars come out, the shepherds will take turns sleeping and
guarding the sheep, using the movemenιs of the sιars ιο time their watch
periods. Any strange sound seems
menacing in ιhe silent night - the call
of a wild animal or the clatter of a stone
rolling downhill makes the sheep stir
restlessly and puts the shepherds on the
alert. Ιι is scenes like these in presentday Bethlehem that make the Christmas
story unfold again and again in more
vivid detail.
Viewing vigilant shepherds in their
lonely pastureland lends credence to the
first Christmas narrative when the shepherds saw the angel "and the glory of
the Lord shone round about them: and
they were sore afraid." We can imagine
simple shepherds, very much like the
ones in existence today, filled with
wonde r as they talked among themselves about the angel's "tidings of
great joy," and we can almost see them
getting to their feet , shaking out the
folds of their ro bes, calling to their
sheep and hurrying up the rocky slopes
to Bethlehem in o rd er to "see this thing
which is come to pass \vhich the Lord
hath made known to us."
The Church of the
Natiνity
The most spectacular of edifices in
Bethlehem is, of course, the Church of
the Nativity. Its basilica was erected in
the fourth century by Constantine the
Great, was rebuilt a nd enlarged by
Emperor Justinian in the sixth century,
and has since been expanded to include
chapels representing the Armenian,
Greek Orthodox , F ranciscan and
Roman Catholic churches, all of which
have traditionally squabbled with each
other over the control and administration of the historic structure.
But it is the ecumenical and eclectic
nature of the church that has saved it
from the whims of fate down through
the ages. For instance, the Persians destroyed almost every Christian sanctuary
ίη the Holy Land in 614 A.D., but when
they got to Bethlehem they found, to
their surprise, a mosaic on the church
walls representing the three Magi in
Persian dress, and out of respect for
their countrymen, spared the church
from destruction. Later, Muslems
found that the western apse of the
church faced Mecca, so for hundreds of
years they used the church as their own
place of worship, even making special
pilgrimages to Bethlehem.
During the time of the Crusaders, the
church was in need of repair, and restoration was underway; old floor marbles
were replaced, the roof of cedar was
covered with lead, the sidewalls were
covered with marble, and the upper part
of the nave was covered with splendid
mo sa ιcs.
The entrance to the church, however,
was deliberately left low and narro\v, a
tiny opening left within a Jarger
blocked-up doorway, which is located
in the far wall. It is barely large enough
for one person to pass through bending
very low, a nd it is believed that all the
doors of the church were once walledup centuries ago to keep mounted Muslems from riding their horses into the
church.
Through the narrow door, visitors to
the Church of the Nativity can enter the
immense Roman basilica of Constantine the Great. The very air is heavy with
antiquity, and in the murky light one
can see the austere grandeur of massive
Roman columns, and the faded patches
of old gold Byzantine mosaics. And
directly beneath the high altar is a
cham ber, part cave and part masonry the grotto where the Christ was bom
almost two thousand years ago.
The Grotto of the Nativity
T hat cave in which Jesus was born
and craddled in a manger is known as
the Grotto of the Nativity and is
enclosed in the Church of the Nativity,
zealously guarded by monks and priests
and nuns. Revered by pilgrims as the
exact spot where Christ was bom, this
crypt, about fourteen yards long and
four yards wide, is lit by silver lamps
kept burning by the Greek Orthodox,
Armenian, and Roman Catholic priests
who also conduct services in the church.
Α small dark staircase Jeads down to
the Grotto ofthe Nativity. Here, in the
flickering light of candles and the glow
of silver oil lamps, is a small cave, its
blackened wa lls hung with rich fabrics
and tapestries. Α marble slab on the
floor holds the silver Star ofBethlehem,
marking the traditional site of the
Nativity. The inscription around the
star reads: 'Ήic de Virgine Maria J esus
Christus na tus est" (Here Jesus Christ

kneel down, blank-faced, at the elaborate altar erected above the spot, some
kiss the star, a few bring their lips to the
myriad of silver filigree Jamps that hang
over the star. Across from this site and
down a few steps is the marble-faced
manger where Jesus was lain in swadling clothes after his birth.
This dark grotto, redolent of incense,
seems most unlike our accustomed picture of a wooden stable, a manger filled
with golden hay, and the warm, steamy
smell of farm animals, especially the
sweet breath of patient cows.
At Christmastime the scent of incense
permeates the church as a choir of children and adults sing the Kyrίe Eleison,
their voices echoing against the rough
stone walls. Hymn after hymn is sung,
the voices of the choir drifting ίη and
out in contrapuntal perfection, and there
is a strong feeling of good will growing

CHRISTMAS LETTER
By MJCHAEL KARRAS
Dear Heavenly Father,
As the year approaches its end, and the end readies itself
to give way to a fresh new beginning, Ι find myself in the
midst of realizing some of my dreams and tossing away a
great many of my fantasies. Dreams and fantasies find
themselves somewhere in mid-life, sandwiched between
mature thought, which has been shaped from all the various
experiences Ι have had and a\1 the knowledge Ι have accumulated through the years, and an idealization of Ι ife and the
way it ought to be.
It ought to be different.
You have always listened to me when Ι spoke, from
sundrenched morning to endless, moonlit night. You
stood by me as my heart poured out its concerns, my most
private confessions and my deepest frustrations. You heard
me express my love for my family and the family of man,
especially the little ones, the children deprived of nourishment, of loving embraces and encouraging words, the ones
too weak to carry on without Your blessing. You always
spoke to me in a clear, strong voice and Ι knew then what my
next step should be.
Hear me now again, dear Father. There is something
more. Something on my mind and in my heart, something
that grapples with me like a burning sensation rushing
through my body which, no matter how hard Ι try, won't let
me extinguish its flame. Ι feel deep anger and pain, resentment and disappointment. Ι feel helpless. There is no one
else to turn to but You, the Almighty, no one else to whom Ι
can put my question.
When will Cyprus breathe the clear, fresh air offreedom?
The "island of love", where just off its shores, it is said,
Aphrodite was born from the foam of the waves, has been
violated. This is not the stuff of dreams and fantasies; this is
the raw truth. Ι speak of barbarity. In its 9000 year history,
conqueror after conqueror has forced this island to succumb
to foreign domination. Blood has been spilled. Human
rights have been ignored. Spirits have been shattered and
dignity has been stripped away. And, yet, the legendary
lemon trees and orange groves continue to envelop the
island with their bittersweet fragrances, and the Greek
Cypriot holds ο η dearly to faithand hope. How much longer
before the trespassers pack up and leave? Fifteen years is
long enough to occupy a land that is not theirs, and fifteen
years is equivalent to a lifetime for the Greek Cypriot who
waits, waits with a burning passion to return home, to his
birthplace and that of his ancestors, to the p\ace where he
dreams his grandchi~dren will be assured a haven of peace,
waits to find out whether his loved ones who haνe been
missing for fifteen years are still alive. Patience is a virtue, Ι
know, but how much more patience before the Cypriot
people, Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot, can live
together in harmony without the brutal interference of
outsiders? And how much longer before 200,000 people,
forced to flee from the northern portion of Cyprus that was
DECEMBER, 1989
Stone idol, 3rd millenium B.C.
seized by the Turkish armies as if it were a piece of pie
waiting to be sliced off and devoured, can no longer call
themselves refugees?
In the north, the names of towns and streets have been
changed, Ι hear. Churches have been converted to sheep
pens and storage dens, Byzantine icons have been desecrated
and others have been transported to auction houses in
Europe, the United States, and Australia. An identity is
being erased and a new one is being scribbled ίη. And all this
without permission, without anyone's blessing, without any
other country's support. All this and more in the name of
politics, not humanity as they would have the world believe.
Ν ο one, not one among us, knows fully the entire truth.

Ν ο one, that is, but You. That is why Ι turn to You, as I have
so many other times in the past, and Ι ask for Your divine
intervention. The words of politicians don't seem able to
solve very much, especially if one side of the bargaining team
is unwilling to deal fairly. For years now words are strung
together to form sentences, which in turn give way to lengthy
treatises and fat proposals. W ords that sit stu bbornly on the
page or linger without purpose in the air. They are not doing
what they are meant to do: strike an agreement that will be
beneficial to all the people.
Ι don't pretend to understand politics we\1. I'm an artist
and Ι want to create, but how can Ι give my all when there is
so much to distract me? Ι am a philanthropist, a humanitarian, a champion of human rights, of justice, of equality.
Everywhere ο η earth. Ι am in favor ofthe people at all times,
not of greedy, senseless theories. What the Turkish government feels for Cyprus has nothing to do with real love and
compassion; it has a lot to do with bargaining power. Alas,
Cyprus is strategically located and is made to play the pawn
in the great game of politics.
Am Ι dreaming'? Fantasizing? Being overly simplistic? r
know that it's all a great deal more complicated. But this is
not a letter of political analysis, dear Lord; there have been
plenty of those. And this is not a detailed description of all
the damage that has been wrought; there are texts that go
into all the ugly details. This is a plea, to You, to save us.
Our brothers and sisters struggle for their birthright, but
they are small in number and alone they cannot accomplish
their goals quickly. If they were stronger, they would have
dealt with this blow to their homeland long ago. But because
they are not, Ι turn to Υ ou. And ask that Υ ou turn to them.
Only Υ our divine guidance can a\leviate the pain of the
innocent and enlighten the guilty. Only You have the power
to heal.
You might very well ask me why it is that Ι am so
outraged by the devastation that has struck Cyprus. What is
my connection? I'm not a Cypriot, nor have Ι ever visited the
island. Once, in C hicago in 1973, Ι had the honor of performing for Archbishop Makarios. My group and Ι played
the music of Hadzidakis and Theodorakis, particularly
Theodorakis's Πn Rοmίω·ίnί Μίn Πn Kles, and Hrίso­
Prasino Fίlo Rigmeno Sto Pelago written especially for
Cyprus. Archbishop Makarios was visibly touched, and so
was Ι. There are moments that are chiseled in my memory,
the feelings of compassion so strong that no number ofyears
can weaken them. That evening, a clear symbol of hope and
progress, is one such memory. But that was before everything changed and the dreams of Cyprus were blown to
pieces.
What is mv connection? Ι have a connection all right,just
as surely as Ι have a relationship with every living thing on
this earth. Ι wou\d be an emptyheaded fool if Ι chose to close
myself off from what is happening around me, especially
when what is happening is absolutely wrong. Ι feel deeply for
the Chinese students who had the courage to express their
democratic views and were, ίη return, shot down coJd, dead.
Ι ache for the black South Africans who in their own country
plead repeatedly for what should naturally be theirs equality. Ι have not forgotten my brothers in Northern
Epirus, nor in battered Lebanon, or in the bloodbath of
Nicaragua. My prayers are with those who Iay their heads
down on the ground to go to sleep, their empty stomachs

The Turkish government may have its own logic to
explain its brutal invasion of Cyprus (the Russians had theirs
when they moved into Afghanistan), but their warped sense
of logic is totally unacceptable to the reasoning peop\e ofthe
world. Is ιt possible that this illegitimate conquest of theirs
has made them dizzy? Has it stupefied them? Don't they
know that the Greek Cypriot will not be enslaved? Can't
theγ understand that no matter how many fine silk rugs of
theιrs are spread over northern Cyprus, the living soil underneath, the very land that has survived attack after attack
over the course of thousands of years, will never be theirs?
All around us the bells of freedom resound. Why is it that
in Turkey they have fallen on deaf ears? What are their
history books going to tell their children, about honor and
justice and respect? And what about conscience? Or is that a
word not easily translatable into their language? When are
they going to deal with the problems plaguing their own
country, serious problems that need immediate attention?
When are they going to admit their mistakes, bow out, and
perhaps one day be worthy ofrespect? Ifthey want the world
to think of them more kindly, then they must make the first
move toward being kind. Hίstory willjudge them severely. Is
this what the Turkish republic wishes to leave behind for its
future generations? Destruction comes back to the desDECEMBER, 1989
.troyer, many times over. That is the lesson of history.
Instead oflearning from past mistakes, why is it that they are
repeating them?
Maybe I'm just too naive to understand the vicious ways
of the world. But, I'm not a political being. I'm a human
being. γ ou gave me a heart and γ ou gave me a mind. And,
γ ou have made me use them. γ ou gave me the go-ahead to
create and the courage to speak up, to praise the rights and
scorn the wrongs. γou also gave me good and plenty reason
to believe in γ ou. And Ι do, totally. That is precisely why Ι
address myselfto Υ ou and know that γ ou will understand. Ι
yearn for γ ou to conduct us as a maestro would his orchestra, so that all the various sounds on this earth will be
brought together in perfect harmony.
This Christmas, Ι pray that every individual who can
make a difference, will. And this Christmas, a s we celebrate
the birth of our Lord, your son, Jesus Christ, may we truly
feel goodwill toward man and work honestly to attain peace
on earth. Guide us, Heavenly Father, so that we make no
more mistakes, so that we can open up our hearts and
embrace our fellow man. Endow us with the strength we
need in order to speak out loud against all things evil and to
rid the world of jealousy and hate and abuse. We are all
γ our chίldren, every one ofιis, equally, and we all seek γ our
blessing. Now before things get any worse. Now, because
humanity cannot exist without γ our love.

Worthiness', "Man of the Year,"
Angelo Κ. Tsakopou1os at the Regent
Beverly Wίlshire Hotel, Beverly Hills.
Tsakopoulos, 52, prominent Calίfor­
nia business, community leader and
philanthropist, immigrated to the υ nited States from his native Rizes (τripo­
lis), Greece, at age 15. From humble
beginnings, he rose to become one of the
nation's foremost builders of residentίal, commercia1 and industrial properties in the Sacramento area.
AXIOS' President Peter Caloyeras,
Co-Chairman of the gala event with
Cyprus Consul General of Los Angeles,
Andreas Kyprίanides hailed Tsakopoulos as symbolic of the 'Άmerican
dream", and an inspiration to all
Americans.
'Άngelo Tsakopoulos, while achieving phenomenal success as a business
man, has never turned away from his
Hellenic faith, cu1ture and tradίtions
and has given of himself freely to any
cause that beckons," said Caloyeras.

country does with its garbage. Ι tried to
find out but all Ι got was a humorous
explanation from a Russian girl ...
There is nothing left to throw away, she
told me. Maybe so. Food is rather restricted to buy, but for six dollars one
gets an excellent smorgarsbord buffet in
most hotels. But even ifthere is less food
to be had it is good fo r the hea lth of the
population. Slavs used to be a heavy set
race. Not any more. lt is rare to encounter buldging people, especially in the
young generation.
And speaking of the young crowd,
contrary to what outsiders think, they
can easily compete with Hollywood starlets. Most of their hair is beautifully
stricked and in no place in the world
have I seen more mascaraed eyelashes.
Their nails are long and really red and
their figures slim and tall. Of course this
is not the average, but again where in
the world are beautiful women the common denominator?

completed the outfit. Looking like poor
little Annie in my blue jeans Ι had to ask
her where she found those clothes.
"Black market, of course," she told me
and made no bones about it, as if it was
the most natural thing in the world. This
is perestroika for you... (restructuring,
in English) but certainly very effective in
Russia.
While in Leningrad, one has to visiit
Tsarkoye Se\o, the famous summer residence of the Czars. Ι asked about it at
the tourist desk by the name found in
every book that refers to Russia and the
Imperial family. Ι got back a dirt)' look.
'Ύοu probably mean Pushkin," Ι was
told. If that's what they like to call it,
after all it's their prerogative. But with
Pushkin Ι had about enough. Yes he is
the national poet of Russia not because
he was the best writer, but in the beginning of the ninteenth century he was the
first to sow the revolutionary spirit.
Although he died very young, his name
became a national monument almost as
popular as Lenin. Every city boasts a
Pushkin Avenue, a museum, a theater
and of course statues standing and sitting. Now, the famous Tsarkoy Selo the
par excellence beautiful resort of the
Czars is named after him... But to the
credit of the rulers after the barbaric
German occupation during the second
world war the great damage done by the
Teutonic hordes, to the palace has been
restored to perfection .
The Cathedral of St. lsaak

As the palace was originally buίlt by
Italians, artists from that country were
asked over to do that very artistic work.
The floors alone, masterpieces of
beauty unique in the world, took five
years to regain their beauty as they are a
mosaic, in some places made out of
twelve different kinds of woods ... T he
large park surrounding the palace has
also been redesigned and kept in perfect
condition, the way ίt is supposed to have
been ίη its glory days.
While ίη Leningrad, one should visit
one more Cathedral (after all enough is
enough ... ) lt is the famous St. Isaac's
called an anti-God museum as very
often churches not in use are referred to.
It was built in ι 8 ι 8, has ι 3,000 paintings, six meters high bronze doors,
twenty four columns fifty feet high, the
whole buildings made out in lapislazuli, malachite and all sorts ofpolychrome marble. . Let's not forget that
Russia used to be a very rich country ...

to offer, plenty, regardless if one cannot
take more of the same thing, I had

lnstead ι read the history of the church
and felt contented.
In 957 a R ussian princess named
Olga, left Kiev, at that time capital of
the country, and went on a pilgrimage
to Co nstantinople. She was so
impressed by the pompous r eligious
rites that she returned a fervent Christian. She did so much to promote
Orthodoxy that later on she achieved
sainthood. Unfortunately she could not
establish Christianity in her days as her
son, the reigning prince, remained resolutely pagan. But one thing remained
from 0\ga's Byzantine adventure. She

which was to remain the emblem of all
the future dynasties. What helped too ίη
those troubled days, was the marήage

declared Kiev an Orthodox city .

couple of centuries later, two
monks came to Russia, some say from
Mount Athos, and started spreading the
word of God. They were Cyril and
Methodius, both canonized later on and
who, besides religion, brought literacy
to an otherwise totally barbaric country. Cyril established the Cyrillic
alphabet that was to remain from there
on. And speaking of alphabet, Ι would
like to give a suggestion to whom ever
intends to visit Russia. One should,
before departing, take time out (and lots
of patience) to learn that intriguing
alphabet. And don't let yourselves get
fooled, as quite a few letters (thirteen for
that matter) are similar to the Greek
alphabet. And what happens to the
other twenty? I swear they are ment to
run one out of his senses.
Ν evertheless, regardless of all headaches that a voyage to Russia brings it is
an interesting experience.

FOUR GREEK WOMEN PAINTERS

1t is a coincidence but a very pleasant
one. Between the middle of November
and the end of December four Greek

one from Monte Carlo the other from

not to exhibit in Athens where she is

She studied at the Polytechnic Col\ege
in Athens painting, iconography and
sculpture. She has moved to Ν.γ. and
lives in Brooklyn were she produces her
prolific paintings. She started exhibiting since 1975 in the Group Panhellenic
Exhibition in Athens and from then on
in several Calleries in Greece. She has
also exhίbited at the Zygos gallery in
Washington D.C. and the Alexander
Onassis center in New γ ork. Currently
she is exhibiting at the Cyprus House at
East 40th street in New γork City.
Compared to the previous painters, Ms.
Frangios has a great advantage. Her
paintings are more livable, meaning
that you see what see and this of course
appeals much easier to the average
viewer. Also they have a much higher
commercίal value. Her icons are a
delight for whoever cannot afford the

troughs, well heads, millstones, peasant
artifacts and furniture, embroderies and
carpets have already been catalogued
and await the completion of the several
buildings. What is very interesting is
that the government of Cyprus has
asked Mr. Ian Vorres, the founder of
the Pyrgi Museum in Paiania, outside
Athens, to assist in the creation of a
similar museum in Cyprus.
Mr. Vorres is not unknown to New
γ orkers. Only a year ago a great part of
his art collection was exhibited in the
Bergen County Museum in New Jersey..
We are pleased to hear that on January
12 there will be a major opening of 72
paintings by contemporary Greek
artists from the Vorres Museum col\ection at the Center of Contemporary
Arts in Seattle Washington. This exhibition is under the auspices of the Governor of Washington. Also at the same
time, Ian Vorres will deliver a lecture on
contemporary Greek art entitled "The
Ulysses Syndrome". There is a possibi1ity that on his way back to Europe, Ian
Vorres will stop in New γork to give us
the pleasure of attending one of his very
interesting lectures.

ΤΗΕ CHRYSANΊHEMUM
There are two main reasons for which
the Chrysanthemum Ball has got the
well-deserved reputation of being the
most popular gathering of the GreekAmerican community in New York
City.
Pήmarily because this affair is organized by the Archdiocesan Philoptohos
Society and the proceeds from the Ball
cover a great part of the charitable
works that this Society does with unlimited Zeal.
Also from a mundane point of view,
the Chιysanthemum ball is always
expected eagerly as it is the first social
event of the season, an affair that gears
people to a festive anticipation of the
holiday season.
This year they were two more touches
that made the evenίng the greatest success ever. The one was coinsidental but
ίt gave a nice joyful mood. It was the
redecoration of the Grand Ballroom of
the Plaza Hotel. As everybody knows
the hotel has changed hands and it now
belongs to the Trump Organization.
Specifically, Ivana Trump is the owner
of what she calls her "Baby" as it was
offered to her as a gίft on her wedding
anniversay by her husband, the famous
Donald Trump. She aspires to turn the
Plaza into the best hotel in the world.
Already some innovations have taken
place, among them the Grand Ball

participated in eνery respect to make
the financial success worth the toil of
the committee responsible. Because
they surely have worked hard almost all
of the 27 women to bring the affair to

are worth menthioning. Honorary
chairman were Mrs Assimacopoulos,
wife of the Consul General of Greece
and Mrs. Ferraro, president of the

under the presidency of Pauline Kotsilimbas and the chairman of the board

very active member in the Philoptohos
and Eleanor Cyprus a veteran for helping needy causes. They were assisted by

made it happen are to be congratulated
warmly. There was only one little flaw
ίη the otherwise excellent organization:
The perenial elongated table, the socalled Dais. Guests seated at it are supposed to be honored. What they really
are is bored to no end. Has it not
occured to the organizers that lately the
invited officials have excused themselves? Besides aπ excellent Jesson of

"ΤΗΕ
BEAUTY OF AUTHENTIC
GREEK COSTUMES"
Sunday, October 29, 1989 marked a
major premiere event at the New York
Hilton where over five hundred people
came to view the exquisite traditional
regiona1 costumes from various areas of
Greece which were matched to their corresponding dances.
The organization responsib1e for this
ethnic presentation was 'Όrpheus", the
Grecian Heritage Foundation, based in
Brooklyn, and founded by the eminent
Dr. John Tsiouris, its President.
The attendees and their guests felt a
source of national pride as a colorful
array of authentic Hellenic costumes
appeared on the runway. Represented
were those of Florina, Epirus, Macedonia, Thrace, Thassos, Thessa1y, Thebes,
Crete, Sa1amis, Corfu, Chios, Ca1ymnos, Carpathos, Cyprus, and the Peloponnesus, the latter inc1udίng an
antique vest from 1830.
The event also commemorated historic "ΟΗΙ" day, which fell on October
28, and a moment of silence was
observed in deference to "The EPOS of
1940" and all those who gave their lives
in their glorious strugg1e for the cause of
1iberty. "March Toward the Front"
from 'Άxion Esti" of Ο. Elytis followed
and, after that, a heroic and elegiac
anthem for the 1ost second Lieutenant

ΤΗΕ
GREEKS ΙΝ CORSICA...
In 1667 a great number of Greeks
from Mani, Peloponnesus, fled from
Turkish tyranny and went to the is1and
of Corsica. They settled in large
numbers in the town ofCargese near the
capital city of Ajaccio. Thenative population was primarily of Italian origins,
they did not speak French at that time.
It is widely believed among native Corsicans that a Greek family named Kalomeras may have been the ancestors of
the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte
(1769-1821). This story was told to me
by an elderly teacher, Nicholas Petropoli, when I visited Ajaccio in 1960. The
family name was Kalomeras, it was
latinized as Buonaparte. The given
name Napoleon is purely Greek in
oήgin. Thegreat warrior kingwas probably of Greco-lta1ian ancestry. France
became his adopted homeland after
Corsica was annexed, and the native
Corsicans still acclaim him as a "Corse"
not as a Frenchman. Although the
Maniates have been largely assimilated
into the local culture, the Greek elements are still evident in the family
names such as Greco, Papa, Sinopoli,
Zappa, Petropolo and scores of other
very obvious Hellenic surnames.

Restaurants and Restaurateurs
Lexington Α venue pulsates through
the heart of Eastside New York, and all
along this main artery there exist boutiques and restaurants from as many
parts of the world as there are stars in
our flag. Together they make up a
wonderful mosaic of peoples, crafts,
foods, and traditions. But none is any
more fabulous than the taverna-styled
restaurant known as Greek Village.
Under the careful supervision of its
owner, Yiannis, the charming little
place serves Mediterranean food amid
folkloric surroundings. As a matter of
fact, crumbling mementoes of Greece
and her islands find new niches in the
architectural decor of this restaurant.
Arches and domes, mean while, echo the
wealth of splendid civilizations now
fallen into ruin. And gracing the stucco
walls, pottery and tapestry rest side by
side to add beauty to the fine dining that
is possible at the Greek Village located
between 72nd and 73rd Streets on Lexίngton Α venue.
Moreover, the variety ofthe food is as
exotic as the decor itself. At the Greek
Vί\lage hors d' oeuvres and grillades are

more abundant than entrees and desserts. But it is true that nowhere in or
around New York can one find such
superb popular classics of Mediterranean cuisine, as rnoussaka, pastitsίo,
and felcψl. Skillfully prepared, these
tempting dishes are mouthwatering
examples of Middle Eastern culinary
art.
Of the broiled meats, however, the
shishkebab is outstanding. Served with
Greek salad or rice pilaf, the skewered
cu bes of spring lamb are as succulent as
they are tender. Well marinated and
seasonded, these morsels of meat melt
in the mouth at first bite. The mixed
grill, meanwhile, compares favorably
with the shishkebab in tenderness, taste
and quality. Accompanied with sausage, the mixed grill is served with a
Mediterranean salad or on a bed of the
same rίce pilaf that accompanies the
other grillades.
Among the meat entrees, lamb
appears in just about every for m but on
the hoof. Succulent broiled spring lamb
chops areserved stripped offatand with
a lean meat that is cooked to moltenlike tenderness. Accompanied by the
salad and rice pilaf garnishings, this
item on the menu easily takes first place
among the meat dishes prepared at the
Greek Village.
Pita Bread Specialties
For customers who need rapid service, the restaurant serves pita bread
specialties from Noon to 4:00 p.m.
Sandwiched between the warm pita,
meat or feta cheese selections become
the entrees for the person on the run.
But for a more leisurely lunch or dinner,
the house serves superb hors d' oeuvres
to precede the grillades or entrees, and
homemade desserts to end the hearty
meal. But it is also good to know that
when one is in a rush, there is such a
place as the Greek Village where one
may grab the pita bread specialties, the
wonderful alternatives to junk food.
Characteristically Mediterranean,

the hors d' oeuvres range from piping
hot spanakopita -- a mouthwatering
spinach and feta-chesse pie for two -- to
cool, creamy taramosalata, a purre of
fish roe smoothly blended with lemon
juice, olive oil, and chopped onions.
For those desiring a different kind of
appetizer, Greek Village offers dolmades yalantzί which consists of vine
Ieaves stuffed with rice and herbs; hummos, a creamy chick-pea spread; and
unusually smoky melίtzanosalata; and
home-made tzatziki, which is a smooth,
milky mix of yogurt, cucumber, and
garlic.
And for those desiringto savor a little
bit of everything, the house suggests a
kind of antipasto, which includes a little
of each of the hors d' oeuvres itemized
on the menu and labels it pikilia. But no
matter which starter one selects, it is
important to know that each ofthem on
the menu is fresh, home-made, and
essential to begin the meal at the Greek
Village.
Like the starters, the desserts are all
home-made . The embodiment of
wickedness, the baklava and galaktobourίko are prepared on the premises
and may be served right out ofthe oven.
The baklava, for example, is layers of
phyllo dough filled with chopped nuts
baked and served in the syrup of the
house. The other dessert, galactobouriko consists of paper-thin phyllo pastry
layered over warm, creamy custard.
lmmersed in syrup, this delicate dessert
is prepared to perfection by a pastry
chef of many years experience in the
finest restaurants and hotel kitchens in
the Mediterranean.
Commensurate with its mouthwatering menu, Greek Village is also distinguished for courteous service .
Well-mannered young men wait at
tables without pretention. Orders are
taken as promptly as they are served,
and visible effort ίs made to rush customers despite the crowds attracted at
midday or evenίng.
Quite ο bservable are the facts that the
place is always sparkling clean, well
ordered, and under control -- characteristics lacking in some of the best places
in town during the rush hours. Here, at
the Greek Village, waiters and staff
move cautiously amid clean, crisp surroundings and in an atmosphere that is

TUMORS OF
ΤΗΕ
BREAST
By George C. Christoudias, M.D.
T he purpose of these notes is not to
make you experts on breast disease, but
to give you a general idea of the breast
cancer process. This will enable you to
identify the abnormal process and seek
medical advice in a timely manner.
Tumors of the breast can be either:
benign, or malignant.
Benign are the tumors that if left
untreated wil\ not cause death. Such
tumors are the fibroadenoma and the
breast cysts. The fibroadenoma usually
occurs in a younger age, while the cyst
occurs in the middle age. The fibroadenoma is treated with surgical removal.
The cyst is treated with removal of its
fluid with a needle.
Malignant tumors or cancers are the
tumors, which if left untreated will continue to grow, spread to the rest of the
body, and cause death. The cancer
starts as a single cell. From the time a
single cancer cell develops until it
reaches a size that can be felt as a hard,
painless mass, several years may already
pass. During this period the cancer usually does not spread to the rest of the
body. The danger of spread increases as
the size of the tumor increases.
Family history of breast cancer. If
there is history of breast cancer in the
immediate family, such as mother, sister
aunts or grandmother, then the risk for
deve\oping cancer is significantly
increased.
Age. The risk of breast cancer
increases with age. It is unusual at an
age younger than 30. Cancer of the
breast becomes more common at age
40, and the risk continues to increase
after that.
Women that are childless or had their
first child after the age of 30 also have
slightly increased risk of breast cancer.
Less important risk factors include:
obesity and consumption of animal fat.
Dίagnosίs
The presence of a lump can be found
by: 1) self examination, 2) by examination by your doctor, or 3) by x-ray.
Self breast examination should be
done once a month, 7- 10 days after
menstruation, or o n a certain day of the
month after menopause.
How is self breast examination done:
ln front of the mirror. First leave

your hands down, then put them on
your waist, and then on your head. With
each position, look for breast abnormalities, such as a rash, skin dimpling,
tumors, or changes of the breast
contour.
In the shower. Soap both breasts and
place your left hand on your head. With
fingers on the right hand flat, examine
your left breast by running your fingers
on the left breast in a circular motion
while pressing gently the breast on the
chest wall. Reverse the procedure to
examine the right breast.
Examinatίon by your doctor. Regular breast examination by your doctor is
usually done eνcry year after the age of
35-40.
Mammographe. This is a breast xray. The main advantage of mammographe is that itt can show the cancer in
a very early stage before you can eνen
feel it by examjning your- breast, and
this increases the chance of cure
significantly.
The American Cancer Society recommendations for mammographe are:
Υ ou should haνe your first mammographe at age 35-40 years old. Haνe a
mammographe every 1-2 years between
the ages of 40-50 years, and mammographe eνery year after the age of 50
years. The only disadvantage of mammaographe is that it is only 85-90%
accurate.
Definίte dίagnosίs of breast cancer
can only be made with biopsy, which
means remoνal of all or part of the
tumor and examίnation under the
microscope.
Breast cancer can be cured if it is
found and treated early. Breast cancer
develops and stays in the breast for a
relatiνely long time before it spreads,
and it is during this period that treatment can achieve cure in over 90% of the
cancer.
Treatment of Breast Cancer
Surgica/ Treatment.
Mod!fied radίcal mastectomy. This is
the most usual operation for breast
cancer and consists of removal of the
breast and the lymph nodes from the
axilla (armpit).
Sίmple or total masιectomy. This is
the remoνal of the entire breast without
the axillary lymph nodes.
Partial mastecιomy or /umpectomy.
This is the removal of the tumor with
the surrounding part of the breast with
or without the remoνal of the axillary
lymph nodes. This operation has to be
followed by x-ray therapy.
Radiation Therapy (x-ray therapy).
Radiation kills cancer cells, and it is
giνen in situations where surgery is not
possible or to compliment surgery in
situations when there is a high possibil-
ity that some cancer cells were left
behind, such as after partial mastectomy- lympectomy.
Chemotherapy Treatment.
Chemotherapy consists of gιvιng
drugs, intravenously or by mouth,
which kill cancer cells. Ι t is indicated in
situations where the cancerous tumor is
big or it has spread to the lymph nodes
or the rest of the body.
Hormone Therapy.
When the breast cancer is removed, it
is always checked for estrogen and progesterone receptors. The results indicate
whether or not the cancer growth is
dependent upon these female hormones. If it is, then treatment with hormones that counteract the actions ofthe
female hormones is indicated.

Η χ~ρα που γέννησε κι ανάθρεψε την ιδέα του Ολυμπισμού, αυτή που
γκρέμιζε τα τείχη της για να δεχτεί τους νικητές, είναι η χώρα που της
ανήκει η Χρυσή Ολυμπιάδα του 1996!
Στη χώρα που υψώθηκε από χιλιάδες φωνές το «αρχαίο πνεύμα»,
που συνυπάρξανε η ρώμη, η ομορφιά, η αγωνιστικότητα, η
άμιλλα, μαζί με την ειρήνη, στη χώρα αυτή ανήκει ο εορτασμός
των 100 χρόνων της Ολυμπιάδας!
Η Χρυσή Ολυμπιάδα ανήκει δικαιωματικά στην Ελλάδα!
Και εμείς, όλοι εμείς, είμαστε υποχρεωμένοι να τη
